Sheepshead Bay-Area Apartment Rental Roundup: 1/21 – 1/27/2013

Making new friends in the city is hard. But with these two cats, you’ll never need to go out again. (which is convenient because you won’t be able to afford going out either)

One Bedroom Coop in Sheepshead BayPrice:$1,500Location: 2909 Ocean AvenueDescription: A warning to all those with neck problems (or cranky): To figure out what’s going on in the pictures in this post you have to tilt your head to the left. Once you’ve figured that out, you’ll see that the place looks completely renovated and there are wood floors.Contact: Svetlana Borovskiy of High Class Realty SB, (718) 333-0700

One Bedroom in Manhattan BeachPrice: $1,450Location: Falmouth StreetDescription:This apartment looks to be completely renovated, with new oak wood floors and what they describe as a “new kitchen,” leaving the imagination to linger on the possibility that the old kitchen was somehow extracted whole to make room for a new kitchen to be inserted like a Lego’s piece. To the return to the real world, heat and hot water are included and the listing makes no mention of pets so you’ll have to find out from the agent.Contact: Michael R. Merola of Citi Habitats (917) 892-6664

Two Bedroom and Weird Paintings in MidwoodPrice: $2,200Location: 1485 East 16th StreetDescription: Are you thinking the “rent is too damn high“? Here is your chance to haggle since, according to the realtor, “rent is negotiable.” Apparently this apartment is also being catered to those who want to “stay away from the hustle and bustle of city.” And once you have this place, you can make friends with all the characters in the paintings, starting with the wild feline.Contact: Liang Li of Maison International, (347) 860-5005
